I reckon Unsworth would have us organised and balanced pretty quickly. Plenty of good players there.

I disagree. Nothing against Rhino as think any manager would struggle with this unbalanced squad. Yes, we have good players...but only on paper, not many that are proven. And guess what? All the other teams have good players, too.

Martina must never be allowed a shirt again. I bet even he can't understand how he gets a game... poor judgement from Koeman bringing him in. Thought we fought better tonight but sad to say Koeman needs to accept he's banging his head on his ceiling and should resign. Get Unsi in for now and get hunting a new manager but who is the question. I don't want us to be someone's pay day.. Howe could do a good job but might not be big enough for Moshi....

But at least he might have faith in playing Kenny and Garbutt as proper fullbacks, instead of Holgate and Martina who are neither.

There was quite a bit of fight from many of the players, but morale is very low so it is very difficult to play as a cohesive team at this time.

At least Koeman tried to be positive with the starting lineup and substitutions, however there is no justification for playing Martina, I can't believe how atrocious a player he is. Koeman won't be sacked because Moshiri will see this as an 'expected' defeat against a very good French club and because we did play largely better than against Brighton.

We can use the Europa League now to experiment a bit, especially giving fringe players a go and rest some of our other key players for other important games.

I'm concerned about Davy Klaassen though, he is struggling a fair bit, I think he might have to go out on loan to another club in January, simply to play more football and rebuild his confidence before returning to Everton for preseason, maybe in a league which is not quite as challenging as the Premier League but one that is better than the Dutch Eredivisie.
